Maldini is currently on-loan at Monza from the Rossonero.
He told Sportweek: Returning to Milan is always an option and a desire, but Monza are giving me a lot.
"If I were to return to Milan, I would return with the aim of playing, certainly not to sit on the bench.
If I have spoken to Ibrahimovic? No, I haven't heard from Ibra. I speak and sometimes hang out with Leao, Giroud, Calabria and Florenzi."
Maldini's deal with Milan runs to 2025.
